""Colonization and Christianity"" is a thought-provoking and informative read for anyone interested in the history of colonialism and its lasting impact on the world.1838. Howitt writes in the Introduction: The object of this volume is to lay open to the public the most extensive and extraordinary system of crime which the world ever witnessed. It is a system which has been in full operation for more than three hundred years, and continues yet in unabating activity of evil. The apathy which has hitherto existed in England upon this subject has proceeded in a great measure from want of knowledge. National injustice towards particular tribes, or particular individuals, has excited the most lively feeling, and the most energetic exertions for redress-but the whole wide field of unchristian operations in which this country, more than any other, is engaged, has never yet been laid in a clear and comprehensive view before the public mind. It is no part of the present volume to suggest particular plans of remedy. The first business it to make know the nature and extent of the evil-that once perceived, in this great country there will not want either heads to plan or hands to accomplish all that is due to the rights of others, or the honor and interest of England.
